Watch Puppet Master 5 For Free

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

The fifth installment is a direct sequel to the forth movie which follows Rick Myers the current Puppet Master expressed by Andre Toulon. This movie introduces a corporation's intent to steal the puppets led by the new director of operations for the Omega Project. I found this new storyline to sit well with the main villain being Sutekh, the puppet's arch rival. I digged the writing and characters in this entry, some funny moments too but the deaths could have been better. The continuality was nice to see too bring back the two main leads from the last movie however there wasn't much new development between the two of them. The growing of characters seemed to happen with the puppets were Blade could start speaking a bit saying "Yeah!" when he was excited to go back to Bodega Bay Inn with his fellow puppets. Puppet Master 5 is a good addition to the franchise and I'd recommended it to view directly following the forth if you're going to watch it. Solid movie, long live Blade!

I've been a fan of Puppet Master for many years now. Despite this, I only very recently watched Jeff Burr's two entries in the series, 4 and 5. #4, I felt, was similar in quality to the other puppet master films; it was hokey, sort of cheesy, and the story took its time until the very end, then rushed headlong into a rather jumbled conclusion. It was the sort of "pleasure and pain" reaction that I've had to most of the series. Thus, I expected the same from #5, as 4 and 5 were filmed back-to-back. Then I watched the fifth film, and I can say I've never been so pleasantly surprised by Puppet Master. I was all smiles.I watched the film, about the final battle between the new puppet master and the Egyptian demon-lord Sutekh, who has manifested himself in the form of the mightiest totem of all (a last-ditch attempt, mind you), and I thought to myself that this is what the series can and should be. The foremost thing about this film that makes this film superior to most other Full Moon productions is the same thing that made The Avengers better than most other movies of its kind: it's fun. I had lots of fun watching the puppets at work against the evil they faced, I had lots of fun watching Ian Ogilvy's character and his bumbling henchmen, I had lots of fun watching the cute romance between Chandra West and Gordan Currie. The special effects, by David Allen and Mark Rappaport, are by far their best (in this series) and in the script by the five(?)writers, more does in this case mean more. Jeff Burr made this a very fun little movie, which in only the briefest of moments struck me as B-budget; it would have been good for theaters, in my book.Puppet Master 5 ends on what is probably the best note possible: a near-nonstop special effects extravaganza in which the puppets truly shine (if only for a time), followed by a heart-warming moment between all the leads. This was originally intended as the final film, and I almost wish it was, as it would have been a fun note to end on. However, although the series might have soured after this, I'm holding out for another Puppet Master as good as this one. Puppet Master Forever.

Puppet Master 5 (1994) * 1/2 (out of 4) Number five picks up right after the events in the previous film. This one starts off with Rick (Gordon Currie) behind bars accused of killing those poor souls from part four. He gets released and he and his girlfriend (Chandra West) get caught up with the puppets who are once again doing battle against the evil Demon God and his smaller creatures. PUPPET MASTER 5 is certainly a step up from the previous film but that's really not saying too much. Director Jeff Burr filmed the two installment back to back and this one here certainly has a better path as to where it's going even if the story with the Demon God was incredibly silly. The middle of this film has some thugs breaking into Toulon's hotel where they're searching for the puppets who of course have to use their weapons to destroy them. As with the previous film, this one here has the puppets playing good guys so the film offers up some bad guys that they can kill and still consider themselves as good. At least this section of the film enters the horror trappings of idiots being locked up inside a creepy hotel where they're picked off one by one. With that said, the story itself really isn't anything special as once again the human characters aren't interesting and I think the puppets too get the short shifted. The puppets at least get a few more kills under their belts but the film has pretty much milked them of any personality with the exception of Blade who gets a few good scenes. Both Currie and West are pretty bland as the leads but horror fans will enjoy seeing Clu Gulager from THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD. Once again the special effects have clearly lost some of their budget from the first three films. The effects aren't nearly as effective and they're also used a lot less than the previous entries. Don't even get me started on the Demon God outfits that looks to be something made for a high school play.

Certainly not the 'final chapter' and though sometimes subtitled 'the latest chapter' this is also true of Puppet Master 2, 3, 4 and the other sequels. Filmed concurrently with Chapter 4 (NOT back-to-back as often mis-claimed) this has the same director (Jeff Burr) and most of the main cast - though yummy Teresa Hill is in a coma and Gordon Currie beefcakes his way through police questioning and whatever with the help of sex interest (not love) Chandra West. English actor Ian Ogilvy joins the English (and frankly quite amazing) Guy Rolfe as Toulon. Ogilvy plays a villainous doctor wanting to steal the puppets secret but of course has to battle with the lovely puppets, their saviour Gordon Currie and the Egypyian God, Suketh and Mr Totem from the third film. Many of the extras in this one (including the thugs that Ogilvy hires to steal the puppets) are actual animators and special effects people so its fun to see them acting alongside that which they normally create. Toulon barely features again and its truly a pity that the team at Full Moon couldn't produce a stronger story and one where Toulon could truly feature (Guy Rolfe was deceased before any demanding sequel was made). Not sure why this seemed better than volume four but it is less dull and the English/Canadian cast make good viewing. Top scenes include menacing Six-Shooter fires the fingers from Totems' claws and a dream sequence (usually so tedious) where Teresa Hill (the psychic from number four who is in a coma now) is orgasmic in a blood filled bath tub as Pinhead holds her head as Tunneler drills her skull - it's a job to explain why this scene is so great but see it and you'll probably agree. Special mention for Jester because he rocks and in a way his head rolls!..!
